Senator Al Franken, D-MN, and his wife Franni Bryson (L) arrive at the US Capitol on December 7, 2017 in Washington, DC. Franken announced that he will be resigning in the coming weeks. Franken — a former comedian who made his name on the popular late-night comedy show ‘Saturday Night Live’ before turning to politics — has acknowledged misconduct with at least one accuser. The 66-year-old Minnesota lawmaker apologized last month and vowed to work to regain the trust of his colleagues and voters. / AFP PHOTO / MANDEL NGAN (Photo credit should read MANDEL NGAN/AFP/Getty Images)
